When your doing that blues lick at 1:59 are you only using the notes in in the scale you just showed?

@van1980 when you're playing fast arpeggios, or when you're chording 7th, 9th 11th 13th chords especially in Jazz and Funk, you're going to want to be dextrous with your pinking since you will often need to partially bar the top two strings. Also, when barring up the neck, playing licks like from Hendrix, SRV, playing those melodies you'll need to do hammer-ons with your pinkie...

@JustinSandercoe thanks you just dont know how much these vids have helped me man.i really appreciate you taking the time to show us what all of this nonsense means LOL

[van1980]

Why bother with your pink if it's your ring finger that's always going to do the bending? It seems like you're generating muscle memory for something that isn't as practical...but I'm a newb, please correct me...

Thanks for the video Justin. The bit about using either the 3rd or 4th finger was quite helpful to a beginner like me.
